About Us

Ewa has over twenty-years experience as a physical therapist, specializing in multiple orthopedic and neurological conditions.

Therapy Philosophy
Her rehabilitation philosophy focuses on a holistic, but practical and scientific healing approach that includes close collaboration with the patient's physician to ensure a thorough evaluation.
Her thorough evaluation approach and knowledge of medical diagnostics allows her to pinpoint the root cause of the patient's problem and question doctors orders if necessary.
Referring physicians have a deep respect for her broad clinical knowledge and defer to her evaluation if she believes the orders need to change.
She also believes that a speedy recovery is based on the patient working hard, but safely within the limits of their ability.
It is important to her that her patients leave every session "feeling better", but also that the patient has an "enjoyable and fun" experience during their treatment which has a strong healing benefit.
She adopts a very professional, yet "light hearted" approach to her therapy that makes her patients feel totally relaxed which helps them focus on their treatment tasks.
